Gymnast had little stars jumping
BACKFLIPS and cartwheels were among the athletic manoeuvres with which an Olympic hopeful impressed pupils at a Leamington school recently.
Gymnast Harry Owen, who is also aiming to compete for Great Britain in the next Commonwealth Games, visited Telford Infant School in Kelvin Road to lead a morning of sponsored activities.
The whole school tried star jumps, press-ups and various other moves.
